New York City Lights: Tink Wong

The first thing that draws me to Tink Wong's thesis collection is her gorgeous color palette, composed primarily of varying warm hues of orange and purple paired with grey and/or beige. Tink's inspiration for this palette came from New York City night lights. Though, these colors are personally reminiscent of the New York summer skyline just before sunset, with the bits of color in the pin stripe of the grey jacket or pant mimicking the reflections of the sky in the glistening grey buildings. Either way, the effect is beautiful and very New York!

In this collection, Tink also plays with contrasts between masculine and feminine. This is most obviously apparent in the very masculine, businesslike cut of the grey pinstripe pieces, which are then paired with a feminine skirt or a flower detail on a shirt. Another example would be her tailcoat cut jacket made feminine by its color, which is a soft pale purple, and other details such as a white tassel.

The U.S., especially multi-national corporations and wealthy investors, NEED the growth of other nations for good returns. The U.S. is washed up for quite a while in terms of growth, so they're looking elsewhere. If we threaten war with any of these growing countries - our multi-nationals and investors get kicked out - and I don't think they'll allow that to happen.
